After walking around the entire subterranean lake for more than an hour, Lin Jin regretfully discovered that he had to cultivate to at least be able to return to before his battle with the Great Black God. This was because this underground cave, other than the three passages that seemed to be the entrance to the water, did not even have a passage that led to other places.
It looked like this was the end of the underground river.
Through his observation, he discovered that the blue light emitting from the lake was an extremely tiny algae. Although every single algae could only emit a tiny bit of light, but this kind of algae was spread throughout the entire subterranean lake, and the light emitted by them when concentrated together could give the entire underground cave a bright feeling, reflecting a kind of hallucinatory color.
There are a lot of fish that swim, and they also eat this algae for a living.
Under the illumination of the blue light, these fish, big and small, swam back and forth in the lake, looking very harmonious.
In addition, the ancient trees that he could not recognize were just as he had expected. They were plants that had been dead for who knows how many years, yet for some reason did not rot. Instead, they turned into a material between charcoal and wood.
In that case, with the fish in the lake and so much wood, there would be no problem at all for him to eat cooked food. As long as they found a comfortable and dry place, sleeping would not be a problem.
He had already taken care of the food and shelter, and now that he needed to recover his cultivation, it would be a pleasure for him to be able to cultivate in such an enchanting place.
Once he made up his mind, he no longer searched for other exits and temporarily gave up on the idea of exiting.
He looked around in detail once more and carefully inspected the underground cave. He discovered that everything here was not something that could be found in modern times.
These plants, as well as the giant bones of some beasts that he found in the ancient trees, all maintained an extremely ancient state, as if they had been lost since ancient times. Even the fish in the lake were quite different from what he usually saw.
It looked exceptionally fierce.
Perhaps, this place was simply an ancient ruin! With this thought, he shook his head and finally got used to the surprise here.
After eating so many days of medicinal herbs, he hadn't been able to eat any of the cooked food. Even though he had almost no demand for the delicacies, he still felt uncomfortable eating them, and once he settled down.
He then took the fishing rod out from the Cosmic Bag and caught a few small worms from the lakeside aquatic plants as bait. Afterwards, he sat down by the lakeside and began to fish.
However, he seemed to have forgotten that even though the fishing rod was also a fishing rod, it had that unique spirit energy that was attached to it.
However, it caused the fish to be extremely fearful. As soon as the fishing rod was lowered, the small fish that were looking for food by the lake immediately swam away as if they had seen something terrifying. In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared without a trace.
Moreover, for some reason, this underground spiritual energy was much weaker than the ones on the ground. It didn't seem to have formed into any kind of small fish. After sitting there for a long time, he was still unable to find anything.
In the midst of his depression, he suddenly remembered the fishing rod's unique effect. He straightforwardly retrieved the fishing rod and threw it into the water. He picked up the fish himself.
Who knew that right after collecting the fishing rod, who knew if it was because they heard the sound of it falling into the water, or because they smelt a unique scent from his body, a few over foot long weirdo with a mouth full of sharp teeth immediately rushed over. It seemed like they wanted to taste the freshness.
Lin Jin was far worse off than when he was at his peak. Within a dozen meters. As long as there was any disturbance, it could not be hidden from his mind. Seeing these weirdo s coming from the water, they all bared their fangs and brandished their claws.
You guys want to have a taste, but I still want to have a taste! Wasn't this what they were hoping for!
When the weirdo arrived in front of him, and was about to bite him, Lin Jin's hand was as fast as lightning, grabbing the weirdo's lower jaw, without caring about how it struggled, he flung it backwards, and threw it onto the shore.
Then a second, a third... Until he threw the five weirdo onto the shore, he saw that there were still many of these weirdo coming over. He estimated that no matter how many he caught, there was nothing he could do about it. He leaped up from the lake and returned to the shore.
As for the weirdo that Lin Jin did not catch, they were gathering more and more. In just a small area by the lake, in less than a moment, there were more than twenty of them, causing the lake's surface to ripple.
